Dr. Lisa Su, CEO of AMD, stated that revenue from the Data Center and Client groups saw significant growth of over 80% driven by the demand for the MI300 family of AI chips alongside increased sales of Ryzen and EPYC processors. This period marks an exciting time for the industry as AI continues to drive increased demand for processing units across all customer segments, with AMD offering products to support every group.
